I recommend 4 days backup min & 5 days backup if budget allows of storage and Iron Edison were saying that 2 days was sufficient. To clarify - I said “magical” as in wondering if there was something special, I-E did not say this. __________________________________________________________ Dana Orzel Great Solar Works, Inc - NABCEP # 051112-136 <mailto:d...@solarwork.com> d...@solarwork.com - <http://www.solarwork.com> www.solarwork.biz O - 970.626.5253 F - 970.626.4140 c - 208.721.7003 "Responsible Technologies for Responsible People since 1988" From: RE-wrenches [mailto:re-wrenches-boun...@lists.re-wrenches.org] On Behalf Of Dan Fink Sent: Friday, October 14, 2016 12:04 PM To: RE-wrenches Subject: Re: [RE-wrenches] Battery Watt hours FLA VS Iron Edison Batteries Tom; I have never seen Iron Edison saying NiFe is "magical" -- do you have a specific webpage on their site that says this? All batteries have advantages and disadvantages, and also myriad technical issues for the installer to overcome.

I have installed HUP Solar One Batteries for 20+ years and do not have any experience with the Iron Edison battery. My client went to Iron Edison & was told that 360 AHR at 24 VDC would cover the same AHR as a 760 to 900 AHR in FLA. I understand you can use the IE deeper typically than a FLA. Math is math to me & how I have sized [successfully for years] Is there something I am missing or has my client been misinformed? __________________________________________________________ Dana Orzel Great Solar Works, Inc - NABCEP # 051112-136 <mailto:d...@solarwork.com> d...@solarwork.com - <http://www.solarwork.com> www.solarwork.biz O - 970.626.5253 F - 970.626.4140 c - 208.721.7003 "Responsible Technologies for Responsible People since 1988" _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
